intersection. there was a lot of mud. a lot of rock, debris. that's shoveled off to the side. initially it was a six-inch water line. they shout down service to a couple of blocks worth of homes. then they figured it was the 12-inch, not the six. so they have turned back on the six-inch. now they are trying to come back out here live. the 12-inch is located under the post office box. a way for the utilities to come out here and mark where the lines were so the water park, when they start digging they don't cut into the lines. they hope to start digging perhaps around 7:00. hopefully they want to have the line fixed by late morning. perhaps as late as early afternoon. 11:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m. the general public at large is concerned traffic won't be much of a problem. most of the intersection is back open. the cable car line, mason line,

they have shuttle bus service until they are able to clear the lines out. >> reporter: good morning, laura. we are on skyline boulevard a few miles from the trailhead that leads into the redwoods open space preserve. san mateo county sheriff's detectives and the county coroner are working to identify remains. those officers have taken over the investigation. skeletal remains were found a hundred feet off a trail in the preserve. the hiker that found remains called the sheriff's office.

>> reporter: one of the detectives agreed saying pistorius would risk fleeing despite his celebrity. the comment made his friends laugh out loud. one can only assume because they absolutely don't agree. the police officer said he found a box of testosterone and needles inside the bedroom but they say it is nothing more than an herbal remedy. the prosecution showed it as trying to under mine what happened that night. it seems shots were fired down. the story has not changed. he said he accidentally shot his girlfriend thinking she was an intruder in the bathroom. >> another big take away, a prosecution witness testified they heard a woman screaming at

sunny and mild. then a dry warm stretch of weather. temperatures work like this. 60 degrees inland. 58 degrees at the bay. at the coast, 57 degrees. coming up, if you missed it, i will show you the tornado that touched down in northern california yesterday. we'll talk about changes coming our way just in time for the weekend. just around the corner now. let's check the drive. hey, mike. >> we'll look at the bay bridge where it's dark. they turned off the lights. that happened about now. the metering lights are on and uh you see the headlights. we have a look at the maps and it's all right down through oakland. that continues to be a problem. we have a crash at oak street blocking one lane. blocking the slow lane causing a pay juror impact. minor injuries reported. we have to get the right flat bed tow truck. 580 is a great option. 880 off 238. the wind advisory for the san mateo bridge.

africa. pistorius has been emotional at most of the court hearings. what was his demeanor like today? >> exactly the same. in fact, day by day we expect the composure or results to set in. he's been sobbinging every day repeatedly. you would think you would be exhausted by now. he does appear exhausted at times. he walks in stony-faced, stares straight ahead. he doesn't look at anyone, not even his family. i made eye contact with him very briefly. he looked away immediately. i'm only sitting two feet away from him. it was unavoidable when i looked up. he doesn't show any emotion for the most part. sometimes he puts his head down, eyes closed. almost looks like he's sleeping but someone will say something. one of the attorneys will bring up details from that night and immediately he will start sobbing. he loses his composure quickly.

that happened repeatedly throughout the hearing. laura? >> do you know if he has much family in courtroom as well supporting him? >> every day his father is there. his brother, sister. other family members we don't know well. other supporters. every day he's had 8 to 10 people there supporting him. they show emotion, too. they cry when he cries. you will turn around and see the row of them teary-eyed together. other times they put their heads down together, appearing to be praying. they don't appear to have a lot of contact with oscar pistorius. they try to comfort him at times. in fact, yesterday when pistorius's statement was read by his lawyer and pistorius lost all composure, the judge stopped the proceeding and asked his brother to sit near him. pistorius said, no, no, i'm okay. he really wasn't. his brother put his arms around

him. pistorius has not shown any real affection or emotion in getting close to his family during these hearings. >> can you tell e us anything about about the talk of some sort of herbal remedy and seerngs found inside his home? >> that was interesting. the first thing we heard from police was they said in no uncertain circumstances they found steroids. it was characterized as testosterone with needles for injecting. that took the courtroom by surprise. it wasn't until they were done testifying that the defense got a chance to cross examine the police investigator and the defense said, hey, wasn't that an herbal remedy known as testofiberstudio eco-enzyme or something.

it had a complicated name. they hammered away and it turned out they didn't know. the investigator saw the first word of whatever it was, assumed it had something to do with testosterone. whatever the substance was they are testing it. but the defense denies that it was any kind of banned substance. >> all right. thank you very much. while the drama was playing out inside the courthouse we have new video in of protests going on outside the courthouse. women with's group across south africa are using the oscar pistorius case to call attention to the abuse of women around the world. the victim's friends speaking about what they should say should happen to the olympian. >> as women, are we supposed to sleep with guns under our pillows in case we mistake our loved ones and kill them?

how many tears must we shed before something is done? >> obviously i'm on her side. everybody deserves a chance. >> i don't think i want him to be out of the prison. to embrace our women and respect our women as women and children. >> pistorius will be back in court tomorrow. >> all right. 6:38 now. still ahead, a gaping hole in the ground where a restaurant once stood. we'll show you the after math of a fiery explosion and a search for clues going on now as investigators work to sift through rubble.

we are following a developing story from kansas city where firefighters are using cadaver dogs to search for any victims after a restaurant burst into flames yesterday evening. right now an employee is still missinging and more than a dozen hurt. you see how big the fire was. it was triggered by a natural gas explosion near an up scale shopping area not far from downtown kansas city. >> right now a bizarre and disturbing story out of southern california. a dead body found wedged into a water a tank on b a roof of a downtown l.a. hotel identified

as a missing canadian woman. her body was found yesterday after guests complained of low water with wipressure. police investigating how her body ended up in the water tank on top of this hotel. >> bizarre. >> coming up, stranded in the snow. how hundreds of drivers found themselves stuck on a northern california highway for hours overnight. >> also, a deadly discovery after a hiker stumbled upon human remains in the peninsula, but whose body is it and how did it get there? the latest on the investigation next. >> here we are with gregor, the white shark. how much do you bench? >> see what happens when "today in the bay's" lawrence scott gives up his mic to marco scutaro as we take you live to giants spring training. >> how much do you bench?

that's where the water was gushing out. you can see what it looked like several hours ago around 2:15 this morning. so much water gushing out into this intersection was ankle deep at one point. lots of gravel, concrete chunks. they think they will get it fixed as far as the line is concerned this morning, early afternoon. now they are waiting on the utilities to come out like gas, cable so when the water company starts digging they don't break anything. >> i got up at 2:20 to go to work. went in to brush my face, there was no water. all i could hear were bubbles. i walked down the street and i see this mess all over the place. it was amazing. >> no idea. weather, ground movement, old age, i don't know. we'll find out when we get down

to it. >> the weather department shut down water to homes on filbert. they thought it was a six-inch line. they turned it back on and there was a 12-inch line that burst. they hope to have it fixed within the next several hours. late morning, early afternoon. again, filbert and mason. intersection is open. waiting for the cable car to be re-opened. check the slots and make sure there is no debris in there. live in san francisco, bob riddell, "today in the bay." >> in the meantime a blast of winter weather affecting people statewide. in southern california, hundreds of drivers spent much of the night stranded between l.a. and bakersfield after a snowstorm on highway 58. >> right here in the bay area we are seeing snow as well up on the mountain tops like mount hamilton and mount diablo. >> in the south bay people were with pelted with hail as you could see from the willow glen

neighborhood. it was coming down for a good amount of time. >> rough out there. >> i was caught in it walking the dog yesterday. >> you and the pooch running for cover. >> thanks for the pic. >> i put it on facebook. >> it was hailing outside my house. i thought, i don't want to go out in that. those of you who sent in pics did one up on the meteorologist. i want to show you what's left this morning. some of the snow sticking to mount hamilton at 6:48. we're not done with the storm reports yet. let's get to the post substantial report we had from northern california. reports and a picture you can see. a rope tornado touched down. we do want to tank you for the pick cure. you guys are weather watch withers.

this is i-5. we had a live shot. i just got the tweet from chp central division. sig alert over the grapevine closed due to ice and snow. northbound from parker road. this is the stretch which was affected. we saw cars and trucks slow down and we lost the signal. they may have had to move the crew or it may be weather related. headeded to l.a. for disneyland, plan on the coastal route. grapevine is closed i-5 because of ice and snow. locally we have a much more pleasant view. look at the beautiful sunrise over here. this is the 680, 101 interchange. northbound 101 slamming down as the value building for the south bay. the map will show you something relatively pleasant for most of the folks unless you are traveling north through the stretch from 680 to the airport where the brunt of the slow down is kicking in. the rest of the south bay looking mild. we have slowing 280, 87 and 85 starting to kick in.

it is kicking in all a over the bay area gradually building as the volume tends to do that. we see the whole south bay slow at the same time. we'll look over toward the tri valley and slowing out of castro valley. 880 south. there is a crash reported or at least debris from a crash. southbound there is distraction out of union city into fremont. the northbound side sam jammed up. got to clear it. we'll end with the shot at oakland. that's a mess. back to you. >> we have new vid-of an early morning house fire from san mateo. the blaze engulfed a garage near martin luther king, jr., park. this happened after #:30 this morning. we are happy to report nobody was hurt. right now fire investigators still looking for a cause. >> 6:51.
